    As an Indian, I would like to congratulate everyone here, you tax returns are here, but there is a spelling mistake in your name and it would take $5000 to correct it, please call 1800420SCAM to get your refund.

    bad jokes aside, these are the scum of the country and I am sorry for this shit.

      If we’re apologizing for national issues that aren’t our fault, I’d like to say sorry for mass-shootings, exploiting poor people and the widening wealth-gap, and (worst of all) obnoxiously loud Americans abroad!

      I know Truecaller is a privacy nightmare, but that could still help old / tech illiterate people against being scammed. Is this not available in the US?

      Hey! Someone from India!

      I watch lots of scambaiting videos and I know all about the public sentiment you guys have about scammers

      It’s a damn shame the police in India are so easy to bribe… not that American cops are any better

      American cops will rob you and then arrest you too.

      There’s normally at least one person waiting at the door to every scam call center waiting to give a big bag of money to the police to go away

      Sometimes the guy at the door will direct the cops to a legit call center to throw them off
